nited States atent 3,060,861 ROTARY PUMPS WITHOUT SHAFT PACKING Walther Buschhorn and Friedrich Stein, Pegnitz, Upper Franconia, Germany, assignors to Klein, Schanzlin & Becker Aktiengesellschaft, Frankenthal, Pfalz, Germany Filed June 15, 1959, Ser. No. 820,507 12 Claims. (Cl. 103-457) Rotary pumps without shaft packing are, in known manner, combined with the electric driving motor to form a complete aggregate, whereby the impeller of the rotary pump and the rotor of the electric driving motor are mounted on a common shaft supported at both ends. To prevent the insulation of the stator coils from being damaged by the liquid being pumped filling the motor compartment, a liner tube or casing is arranged in the gap between the rotor and stator and its ends are attached to the motor and pump housing respectively by a watertight connection. In the case of pumps of this type care must be taken that no foreign bodies, such as dirt or the like, entrained by the liquid being pumped, enter the gap between the rotor and the wall of the liner tube and there block the rotor or cause more serious damage.
This is avoided according to the invention by providing between the impeller and rotor a compartment of greater diameter than that of the rotor compartment and in which, thanks to the rotary movement imparted by the rotating rotor to the liquid being pumped, foreign bodies in the rotor compartment can collect.
A simple and advantageous construction of the collecting compartment is obtained by enlarging the liner tube or casing beyond the coil ends on the pump side. The collecting compartment is preferably limited on the pump side by a wall constructed as a cover forming at the same time the lateral boundary wall of the impeller from which it is arranged at such a distance that a minimum amount of friction is ensured on the impeller side without affecting the size of the collecting chamber. At the same time the passage of particles of dirt to the collecting compartment is restricted by the wall. Holes are provided near the outer diameter of the wall through which the motor and collecting compartments are completely filled with the liquid being pumped and good venting is ensured.
In another embodiment of the invention, using a liner casing for screening the stator from the liquid being pumped, this casing is centered on the pump housing by a seat or static bearing surface on its enlarged portion forming the radial boundary wall of the collecting compartment. The support for the rotor bearing is fixed in the bottom end of the liner casing. This support is preferably pressed tightly into the liner casing and made from a material the coeflicient of thermal expansion of which is greater than or equal to that of the liner casing material. This measure prevents in a reliable manner the bearing support from becoming loose in the liner casing in the event of fluctuations in temperature.
An embodiment of the invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 shows in axial section a pump aggregate without shaft packing, in which the screening of the stator from the liquid being pumped is effected by a liner casing, and
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the support for the rotor bearing.
In FIG. 1 the common shaft designated by 1 carries the impeller 2 and the rotor 3. The shaft 1 is supported in bearings at its two ends 4 and 5. Stator 6 is screened from the liquid being pumped by a liner casing 7 fixed with a watertight connection on the pump housing 8. Between the impeller 2 and rotor 3 a collecting chamber 9 is provided, the diameter D of this compartment being greater than the diameter d of the rotor compartment 10 and located in front of the coil ends 11 of the stator on the pump side. This collecting compartment is formed by an enlargement 12 of the liner casing and limited on the pump side by a wall 13 constructed as a cover with vent holes 14 near its outer diameter and constituting at the same time the lateral boundary wall for the impeller. The distance e between this wall and the impeller is so chosen that friction on the wheel or impeller side is reduced to a minimum and the size of the collecting compartment is not affected. The enlargement 12 of the liner casing is provided on the outer side with a fitting area or static bearing surface 15 by which the liner casing is centered on the pump housing. A support 17 for the rotor bearing 18 is tightly pressed into the part 16 at the bottom end of the liner casing. Apertures 21 (FIG. 2) are provided between the hub 19 of the support carrying the bearing 18 and its outer boundary surface 20 and the hub is provided with spacer blocks 23 hearing against the bottom 22 of the liner casing to enable effective flushing of the bearing. Recesses 24 (FIG. 2) are provided for ventilation in the boundary surface 20 of the bearing support.
The collecting chamber 9 which has a diameter D greater than the diameter d of the rotor compartment 10 collects the foreign bodies, such as mud, sand and particles of scale from the pipe line which cannot be prevented from passing out of the liquid flowing through the pump into the rotor compartment. These particles are centrifuged outwardly of the chamber 9 and collect adjacent the apertures of vent holes 14. Since the vent holes are disposed adjacent the outer rim of the impeller 2, a suction occurs thereat which readily removes the foreign bodies within the area of the apertures. The collecting compartment is preferably located outside the coil ends, when viewed in the axial direction so as to prevent magnetizable particles, such as particles of scale composed of Fe O from collecting in the range of effective lines of force of the stator. The apertures 21 provided in the hub 19 provide an effective flushing of the rotor bearing and the recesses 24 provided in the boundary surface 20 of the bearing support provide ventilation of the space between the bottom of the liner casing and the bearing support.
